Balsamic Salmon Sliders

Barbecuing might seem intimidating, but it shouldn’t be. The dishes you can make using your BBQ are endless. Today’s recipe is simpler than you might think, thanks to your trusty grill.

To make these delicious seafood sliders, start by preparing your salmon. Start with a boneless, skinless filet of salmon. Take out a large sheet of aluminum foil. Set your grill to medium heat. Create a dry rub using salt, pepper, red pepper flakes, and garlic salt. Rub your salmon filet with these ingredients. Place your salmon filet on the large sheet of foil. Next, heavily drizzle balsamic vinegar over the salmon. Add pats of cold butter on top of and around the salmon filet. Cover the salmon completely by folding over the aluminum foil. Place the foil directly on top of your grill. Let the salmon cook on medium heat for 20 to 30 minutes.

While your salmon is cooking, you can begin to prepare the biscuits and cabbage slaw. You can make biscuits from scratch, or take a shortcut by using the ready to bake kind found in your local freezer section. I used Pillsburry flaky layers biscuits. Using a biscuit that flakes easily is important, because you’ll be dividing them in half to make each slider. Bake the biscuits per package instructions. To make the slaw, start by making the simple dressing. Mix four table spoons of olive oil and vinegar. Add black pepper and crushed red pepper flakes. Next, take shredded cabbage, and blend in bowl with dressing.

When your biscuits have cooled, pull them apart creating two equal pieces. Do this to each of your biscuits. You can add a slice of your favorite cheese. I used provolone cheese. Place the salmon on top of the bottom biscuit. Add your cabbage slaw, and place the second biscuit piece on top. And you’re done! Enjoy.
